We love reading folk tales, especially comparing different versions of common folk tales. This month for the The Virtual Book Club for Kids we’re rereading some of our favorites from Paul Galdone. Will you be joining in and reading along with us? If so, here are some fun resources and activities to go along with some of Paul Galdone’s books.
